Yesterday I put my wort into my shiny, new fermentation tank. It has a TC connector with an angled barb so I needed to use a blow-off system. I simply put the tube into a bucket of water. My thinking is the water will never get pushed back up the tube into the tank. How important is it to use a sanitizer instead of water for this?
